With John and me on a song, if I come up with some lines
which I know aren't really very good and I'm just hoping to
fool him, I know I won't. [This song] was the best example of
it. I though of the idea driving home from a concert in
Southport. I had 'She was just seventeen', and then 'Beauty
queen'. I knew this was rubbish, and that I'd put it down just
because it rhymed. When I showed it to John, he screamed with
laughter, and said, 'You're joking about that line, aren't
you?' And I realised that, in fact, it was and we changed it.

“We recorded the album at various shows on the first leg of the U.S. tour in the Spring and I’m excited by the sound that we’ve got with this new band of mine,” said Paul McCartney. “I wanted the album to capture the spirit of some magical nights on the road as a lifelong reminder for the great crowds who shared them with us.”

Alongside Paul in the Back In The U.S. band are Rusty Anderson and Brian Ray on guitars, Abe Laboriel, Jr. on drums and Paul “Wix” Wickens on keyboards.
